I found this link to some good information on Kaolin, seems to be a big thing in the paper industry, and others.

I have a couple of Kaolin cars, mine are covered hoppers, though I think the more modern way nowadays is to use tank cars.

I've seen a few of the Atlas RTR tank cars lettered for Kaolin companies.

Great links Dave, esp. the first one!
